项目摘要
The development and validation of a novel paradigm for assessing
sexual violence risk perception in MSM!
!
Sexual violence (SV) is a significant problem for sexual minorities, including men who have sex with men
(MSM). The limited research in this area suggests SV is associated with a host of syndemic conditions such as
alcohol and drug use, mental health issues, and sexual risk behaviors. These factors tend to cluster and
interact to worsen each of the other conditions. Unfortunately, while much work has been conducted to
examine these factors in heterosexual women, there is lack of research examining MSM, especially their ability
to perceive the potential for SV risk. Further, MSM are active users of dating and sexual network (DSN)
applications and this technology has demonstrated usefulness for creating safe spaces for MSM to meet and
engage sexual and romantic partners. However, there is mounting data demonstrating that DSN app use is
associated with increased risk for SV, especially given the higher likelihood of using alcohol and other drugs
before sex. On the other hand, some researchers have demonstrated that DSN technology can be harnessed
as a prevention tool for HIV; unfortunately, no such work has progressed with regard to SV. As such, the
current project will use qualitative and quantitative methods to tailor an existing laboratory analogue of SV risk
perception in women to be used with MSM. This paradigm will be subjected to a rigorous validation study to
confirm its usefulness in predicting risk for SV, with the potential for use in future prevention endeavors,
including alcohol administration protocols. During the first year of the project, a computer scientist will create
the initial DSN app (“G-Date”) and incorporate ongoing feedback about the usability, feasibility, and realism of
this research tool from a representative sample of MSM. The initial risk cues embedded in the paradigm will
include individual and relationship-level risk factors for SV perpetration that include: Alcohol/drug use,
masculinity-related factors, and minority stress, including internalized homophobia. During the second and third
years of the project, MSM will engage an experimental study to determine the content, concurrent, and
predictive validity of this novel laboratory paradigm. In short, we will evaluate whether certain correlates of SV
(e.g., history of SV, alcohol and drug use) affect the ability of MSM to detect risk for SV within the G-Date
paradigm and in the “real world.” It is hoped that G-Date will not only assist the understanding of factors
associated with SV risk, but also serve as a useful step in creating tools to enhance prevention efforts in this
susceptible population. Given the goals of the R15 mechanism, student RAs will play an active role in all
participant recruitment, focus group development and delivery, paradigm development, and experimental
evaluation, as well as presentation and publication of the findings. RAs will receive mentoring from experts in
SV, alcohol, sexual minority health, software engineering, and qualitative/quantitative research methods, which
will prepare them for careers in in their respective fields.
一种新的评估范式的发展和验证
男男性接触者对性暴力风险的认知
!
性暴力(SV)是性少数群体的一个重要问题,包括与男性发生性关系的男性
(男男性行为者)。在这一领域的有限研究表明,SV与许多症状有关,如
酒精和药物使用,心理健康问题和性风险行为。这些因素往往聚集在一起,
相互作用,使其他条件恶化。不幸的是,虽然已经进行了大量工作,
在异性恋女性中检查这些因素,缺乏研究检查MSM,特别是他们的能力
感知SV风险的可能性。此外,男男性行为者是约会和性网络(DSN)的活跃用户。
应用程序和这项技术已被证明是有用的创造安全的空间,男男性接触者,以满足和
吸引性伴侣和浪漫伴侣。然而,越来越多的数据表明,DSN应用程序的使用
与SV风险增加相关,特别是考虑到使用酒精和其他药物的可能性更高
在性行为之前。另一方面,一些研究人员已经证明,DSN技术可以利用
作为艾滋病毒的预防工具;遗憾的是,在性传播疾病方面,此类工作尚未取得进展。因此,
目前的项目将使用定性和定量的方法来调整现有的SV风险的实验室模拟
在女性的认知与男男性接触。这一范例将受到严格的验证研究,
证实其在预测SV风险方面的有用性,并有可能用于未来的预防工作,
包括酒精给药方案。在项目的第一年,一位计算机科学家将创建
初始DSN应用程序(“G-Date”),并纳入有关可用性、可行性和现实性的持续反馈,
这一研究工具从一个有代表性的样本男同性恋。在范例中嵌入的初始风险提示将
包括SV犯罪的个人和关系水平的风险因素,包括:酒精/药物使用,
与男性有关的因素和少数民族的压力,包括内化的同性恋恐惧症。在第二和第三
年的项目,男男性接触者将从事实验研究,以确定内容,同时,
这种新的实验室范式的预测有效性。简而言之,我们将评估SV的某些相关因素是否
(e.g., SV、酒精和药物使用史)影响MSM在G-Date内检测SV风险的能力
在“真实的世界”中。希望G-Date不仅能帮助了解
与SV风险相关,但也可以作为创建工具以加强预防工作的有用步骤,
易感人群鉴于R15机制的目标,学生助理将在所有
参与者招募,焦点小组的发展和交付,范式的发展,和实验
评估,以及介绍和公布调查结果。RA将接受专家的指导,
SV,酒精,性少数健康,软件工程和定性/定量研究方法,
将为他们在各自领域的职业生涯做好准备。
